Good deal. I am doing a set of 304's for a customer now for a 4.3 hopefully have some pics up in the next week or 2 my big truck is down with a spun bearing on the lq9.. for some reason they don't like 6900 rpm

 

I bow to the master. Nice welds man.

 

the practice weld i did looks prety good but now the real thing is harder. i might just mig the whole thing.

 

Lookin good

 

Just finished one side of my headers this weekend and I can attest to it being hard. Welding tig on a flat surface is easy for me, but welding it on a curved surface like a pipe is quite a bit harder. One of the hardest things for me is keeping up the weld speed due to the curve. Being legally blind in your eye on the same side you hold the tig touch like I am does not help either

I was surprised at how much argon I used from the cylinder that was back gassing the pipes. Used about 15 CF on that tank, while the tank on the welder only used 5 CF, I can not regulate the back gas tank as well for some reason, my be because there is no real back pressure on it.

 

been too busy to get much done on the truck but i did get a little done this weekend.

I like how the tubing says made in China.

Looks good.

 

Hot diggity. That's gonna be a fun truck.

 

You might want to put some duct tape over the intake runners, looks like you just have the ole red shop rags on there and those damn things lint like crazy

 

wierd, ive never seen any lint from the shop towels besides, if they do lint a little, it would be burnt and spit within the first 2 seconds
